That is pretty sick. A little rail like that on Real's little butter box would be fun.

I got something similar.

Its too damn short. It's an 8 foot ramp with a 10 foot slider. 18' all together. Ramp kind of throws you off and then you just get to slide for about 4' if you lucky. I might get rid of the ramp all together and build another 12 foot flat section. That will make it 20' flat. Its only 3' hi.

Need some warmer weather first.

Whats a good material to use on a slider if you want it flat and not use tubes? Preferably nice and cheap... :)

For example, whats the white plastic stuff in your builds there Cowboy B.

Its PVC sheets. Same plastic shit like PVC pipes, just in sheets. I got them from a friend for free. Have no idea how much they cost. I know a lot of carpentry places use them. It is prob. cheaper than Trax.

I spent much time on the phone in the last month talking with all kind of manufactures. That shit is pretty expensive if you want it to be >10mm thick. Sesitec wanted to charge about 150 € for 1,4 m². Most other factories about 200 € for HDPE :roll:

I'm more than happy that I get some sheets 4 free now too.

Ah, PVC. Yeah I´ve heard that some of these sheets, especially HPDE is pretty expensive. What thickness do you need? Do you think you need more than 10mm??

It seems like we might have some Plexi sheets coming in :)
